Bits and Bobs

Hello!  Welcome back,  I am sharing a new post for the current The Funkie Junkie Boutique Challenge called "Bits and Bobs". 

I am hosting the challenge this time and here is the inspiration for the challenge:

"Do you have a pile of leftover scraps from projects previously made or even a half finished project waiting for you to get the time to complete it?   This is the challenge for you!  It is time to pull out those scraps, remnants or half finished projects and pull them together into a fabulous shabby chic or vintage project.  Make sure to mention in your post what part of your project was a scrap or remnant."

I am always creating scraps and ideas that never get completed.  I set them aside and review them at a later date and if I want to keep them I store them in a hanging folder.

This challenge had me digging through that folder and I found this wonderful tri-fold created waiting to be used up.

 The tri-fold was already inked up, die cut and embossed with the pretty flowers.  I decided to finish it off with a few other leftover bits and bobs.

 As you open the pages  you see they all have the same texture and colors. I added a hint of pink paint to the surface to coordinate with the ribbon.

 On the inside there is another tag sprayed with hickory smoke distress ink spray.  After it dried the doily stencil was laid over the surface and sponged with distress oxide Hickory Smoke.

 I dug through the buttons and picked up some pins from a boutonniere from a wedding we just attended to  use as accents.

The Ribbon and butterfly were leftover from another project and were color coordinated to match the final tri-fold.

I hope this has you digging into your scrap pile to pull together something fun to share!

  1. The trifold itself is fantastic - I can see why you kept it! Love how you've coordinated all the other pieces - adding that little touch of pink was just right! Great inspiration for this challenge - xxx Lynn

  2. Oh, wow, Suzz! This is soooo sweet! I love how you did the tri-fold card with the die cutting and embossing. And your added bits and bobs take this from amazing to...well, leaving me speechless! I don't know how you manage to top yourself with every single project you make! This is such a fun challenge! Hugs! Sara Emily

  3. This is so elegant with all the die cutting and embossing. I love the pretty pop of pink against the neutral background.
